Abstract

In this note we give a very short proof of the div-curl lemma in the limit conjugate case ML\mathcal M-L^\infty, where M\mathcal{M} is the set of Radon measures on Rd\mathbb{R}^d. The proof follows the classical approach by defining here the product in the sense of distributions via a non unique microlocal Hodge's decomposition. The result is valid for many other spaces than ML\mathcal M-L^\infty, including the classical div-curl lemma spaces LpLpL^p-L^{p'} for 1<p<1<p<\infty, and spaces of non conjugated regularity.
